i find this very funny, especially about nintendo looking tot he wii, you guys think its that easy to come with something like that, that kinda of thing happens once in a lifetime, its not easy to reproduce, they tried with the wiiu, the gamepad could have been the next big thing but it wasn't thats just how these thing usually play out, i'm sure nintendo would to make something successful like the montions conrols device on the wii buts its just not that easy.

Nintendo already pulled it off twice, so saying that such things happen once in a lifetime is uninformed. Besides, the Wii's success isn't defined by its controller alone, just like the NES's success wasn't.

Also, with Sony, Microsoft and third parties all pushing into a direction that could be summed up as "dudebro gaming", it is actually easier for Nintendo to offer a successful alternative. Gaming is much broader than M-rating, licensed sports games and racers, so it's not like there's nowhere to go for Nintendo.

nes was just the first traditional console,  it happened over 30 years ago so ok don't really count that asking Nintendo to come up something ground breaking in 2016-2017 is a tall order imo.
